FOUND ONE-Friend Looking for a 470 DR
I have a friend looking for his first DR. With Africa dead or at least on hold, and the market down, let me know what you have.

I do believe there was a gentleman on the firearms classified section that was trying to sell a Butcher Searcy 470 nitro for $10,000

If this one is still available, this is the one you should be trying to cut a deal on. Way better value than the European options.

Believe that was one of my .475 No. 2's George has listed. Lovely rifle and fun to shoot. JJ gave me that load and it worked well in all my .475's.

He's now set on a Heym, but needs a 15" or better LOP.

Biebs, long time no here from you. I have a Merkel Safarie Edirion with octagon barrels highly engraved with great wood. It’s a .450/400, perfect for Africa or NA. In new condition, $12,500 plus $50 shipping. It’s a real deal.

Hey Michael! Still hiding out at the family's shore place....due back home on April 26th before rental season starts.

My Bud is set on a Heym, and was measured at 15 to 15 1/2 LOP. Might be a long shot.
